Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a multifactorial disease with its exact causes not completely clear. Micronutrients such as vitamin A, vitamin D, zinc, and magnesium have been associated with MetS components. Our objective was to investigate the association of nutrient adequacy (NA) with MetS components. The present cross-sectional study consisted of 850 adults between 18-59 years from Tehran, Iran. Dietary intake, socio-demographic data, medical history, and anthropometric indices were collected by trained personnel. NA was calculated as the mean intake ratio to the recommended amount of 16 micronutrients. MetS were defined by the consensus of National Cholesterol Education Program-Adult Treatment Panel III criteria. The association between NA and MetS was examined using linear regression analyses after controlling potential confounders. More participants in the highest quartile were obese in terms of general obesity (p = 0004) and abdominal obesity (p = 0.003) compared with subjects in the least quartile. A significant positive correlation was found between waist circumference (WC) and NA even after controlling for all potential confounders (p < 0.001). NA was positively associated with WC among adults living in Tehran.
代谢综合征（MetS）是一种多因素疾病，其确切病因尚不完全清楚。维生素A、维生素D、锌和镁等微量营养素与代谢综合征的组成成分有关。我们的目的是研究营养素充足性（NA）与代谢综合征组成成分之间的关联。本横断面研究由来自伊朗德黑兰的850名18至59岁的成年人组成。饮食摄入量、社会人口统计学数据、病史和人体测量指标由经过培训的人员收集。NA的计算方法是16种微量营养素的平均摄入量与推荐量的比值。代谢综合征根据国家胆固醇教育计划成人治疗小组III标准的共识来定义。在控制潜在混杂因素后，使用线性回归分析检查NA与代谢综合征之间的关联。与最低四分位数的受试者相比，最高四分位数中更多的参与者在总体肥胖（p = 0.004）和腹部肥胖（p = 0.003）方面属于肥胖。即使在控制了所有潜在混杂因素后，腰围（WC）与NA之间仍存在显著正相关（p < 0.001）。在德黑兰生活的成年人中，NA与WC呈正相关。
